- Seat
belts
- FSU, a member of
the MG-Rover.org forum, has come up with an alternative to the usual
seat belt tidy options. This is his description, followed by
photographs.
"Select a leather belt
2” wide in my case and quite supple leather. With a sharp
knife cut two strips each 25cm (10”) long. Taking each strip
individually fold over so that both the cut edges are together
– one on top of the other. Clamp between two pieces of wood
– I used 4mm plywood – and make sure the ends of
the leather strip is visible. Drill a 10mm hole – using a
sharp wood drill – with the centre of the hole approx 2.5 cm
from the cut edge and central to the strap.
Remove head rests – remember that the plastic holder on the
seat needs to be turned clockwise (1/4 turn) to allow them to come out
completely.
Fold leather strap around the seat belt and push the appropriate head
rest shaft through the two holes. Refit head rest to seat and check
seat belt operation"

- Badly
fitting carpets
- This
is a post from Per (lagerpe) on MG-Rover.org with a great tip for you
ill fitting carpets.
- Here's a tip from
Jerry 'MGtfnut' Herbert for ill fitting carpets - "Loosen
the seat fixing bolts to the floor, and pull the carpet out towards the
sills, then tighten up. No need to fiddle with the SRS etc.
Normally the carpet edge will then tuck in behind the soft plastic
finisher as intended."

- Roll
hoops
- For those of you
with the type of roll hoop that goes through the T-bar, here
is a great tip from Tony
Thompson's site. If you had the OE mesh wind stop fitted, this tip will
cover the hole that is left behind.

Stick

gear stick courtesy of Dieter here.
- MGFmad on the
MG-Rover.org forum, shows how
to shorten the LE500 gear stick.
- Shortening the
MGTF gear stick courtesy of me....
Before you
start, make sure your gear knob will fit over the gear stick shoulder,
The Momo knob I fitted was perfect for this. so, remove the gear knob.
Place a cloth over the gear stick. Hack off the top 30mm. Run an M10
die down the remaining shaft, up to the shoulder. Remove the cloth and
swarf. Refit gear knob.
- If you have a lot
of movement on your gear stick, then have
a read of this thread. The photo
in
this post will help identify
what to adjust.
